\nThe Chamber welcomes Wade Rowan \;on Wednesday\, October\, 2 to present on Work Life Balance and Blend and Active Listening.
\n
\nWork Life Balance and Blend:
\n
\nWork Life Balance traditionally refers to the division between work responsibilities and personal life. The goal is to create a clear separation where work does not interfere with personal time and vice versa.
\nBalance implies an equal distribution of time and energy between work and personal activities\, often visualized as a scale that needs to be evenly weighted.
\n
\nWork-Life Blend focuses on integrating work and personal life harmoniously\, allowing for more fluid transitions between the two. The idea is to blend both aspects in a way that they support and enrich each other.
\n
\nBlend emphasizes flexibility and adaptability\, recognizing that work and personal activities can coexist and intermingle throughout the day.
\n \;
\nActive Listening:
\n \;
\n1st Rule of Communication: Know Your Audience
\nAt our core we all want to be heard\, known\, and understood! \;
\nOnly 2% of professionals have ever been trained on how to prove they are &ldquo\;Actively Listening&rdquo\;. \;
\n
\nListening IS FOR FAR MORE than just a response&hellip\; but instead is the key that opens the door to all effective communication. \;
\n&ldquo\;Our Value as a professional is measured more by the amount of information we gather\, than the amount of information we dispense.&rdquo\; The Sandler Rules
